The Galaxy S9 is shaping up to be an incremental step over the S8: does that disappoint you?
The Samsung Galaxy S9 is approaching its announcement date and, as is now the norm with hot phones, it's being leaked left and right. Of course, it's a good idea to take any leak and rumor with a pinch of salt, but seeing as multiple sources are saying the same thing over and over, and we've seen this play out multiple times before, it's safe to say they are probably close to the truth, unless Samsung manages to pull off a major bamboozle.
And what the leaks and rumors are saying is that the Galaxy S9 will be only a small, incremental upgrade over the Galaxy S8 — slightly slimmer forehead and chin, same frame, same back. The fingerprint scanner looks like it will be placed at the “right” spot and, out of the Galaxy S9 and S9+, only the larger phone would actually get a dual camera module and Portrait Mode (ahem, Live Focus). And no, in-screen fingerprint scanners won't be making it to a Samsung phone until at least the Galaxy Note 9, according to multiple reports.
So, that said, would you say the Galaxy S9 is shaping up to be a disappointment?
